How they differ

Where do your bonds sit?

GoldenPi settles bonds into your own existing demat, and its FAQ says the bonds stay there, with interest paid to your bank, even if GoldenPi shuts. Stable Broking opens and maintains a CDSL demat for you through its own depository participant. TradingQnA users report that holding a second demat can end Basic Services Demat Account (BSDA) eligibility.

What do you pay?

GoldenPi's FAQ says it does not charge customers for any transaction. Stable advertises zero brokerage, and its terms say the struck-off Additional YTM shown on a bond comes from a brokerage waiver; third-party reviews say Stable's margin is embedded in the price. Neither publishes the spread inside the yield it shows, and SEBI's disclosure list for bond platforms has no line for it.

Can you sell early?

GoldenPi tells sellers to place the bond on BSE or NSE or ask its team to help, with no fee stated and no buyback. Stable's homepage promises selling anytime with zero exit fee, but its terms say a sale is not guaranteed and depends on a buyer, allow lock-ins on some bonds, let a spread or penalty apply once a zero-penalty period ends, require a DDPI, and let Stable switch the option off near a record date or on negative issuer news.

What is on the shelf?

GoldenPi states a corporate range of AAA to BBB at 8% to 14%, from ₹10,000, plus G-secs, T-bills, SDLs, SGBs, NCD IPOs, tax-free and 54EC bonds, and FDs as a distributor. Stable listed over 100 bonds on 17th Oct 2026: NBFC and microfinance NCDs up to 11.90%, SDLs of 3 states, a Government of India bond and PSU bonds at 4.75% to 4.80%, with no ratings on its homepage cards. It markets a ₹100 start, but its cheapest live bonds cost about ₹10,000. NRI terms for neither platform were disclosed on the pages read.

Regulatory record and ownership

SEBI fined GoldenPi ₹2 lakh and five directors ₹2.5 lakh, reported 1st Aug 2025, for trades outside the RFQ platform and ads run without BSE approval; GoldenPi's own register shows complaints rising from 21 in FY23-24 to 125 in FY25-26. Oxyzo announced on 19th May 2026 that it would buy GoldenPi; closing was not confirmed by 17th Oct 2026. No SEBI order against Stable Broking was found, and it is a different company from the Stable Investments named in SEBI's interim order of 18th Nov 2024. Stable closed its BSE OBPP business from 27th Nov 2025 without giving a reason and remains enabled on NSE.
